Justification:
Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining at nearly the rate required to qualify for listing in a threatened category. The four subpopulations of this species, however, may represent four different species (see Taxonomic Notes). Some of these subpopulations if elevated to species would probably warrant a threatened status.

This species is endemic to the island of New Guinea (Indonesia and Papua New Guinea). It is separated into four distinct subpopulations, each of which may be a distinct species. It has been recorded between 1,200 and 2,200 m asl.
